Carburetor Identification
for
Early Briggs & Stratton Engines

This document pictures many of the carburetors used on
Briggs & Stratton engines up until about 1950 and the engine models where
they were used. There were some variations on these carburetors and many of the
engines used more than one type. Hopefully this listing will take care of most
circumstances. The Carburetor type numbers are arbitrary and are for
differentiation only.

You can browse through the pictures or click on the Briggs & Stratton
Model letter in the table below to go to the most common carburetor for that
engine.

This carburetor was manufactured by Tillotson for Briggs & Stratton and
was used on certain versions of the same models that used the Type A Carburetor.
The air horn/choke assembly is also used on the Type A carburetor.
